Rib Plating
Severe rib fractures are typically caused by car or motorcycle crashes, falls, assaults or other blunt injuries. If left untreated, short-term consequences of rib fractures include severe pain when breathing, pneumonia and, possibly, death. Long-term consequences may include chronic pain, chest deformity and decreased lung function.
